That's thyroid-shaped?
Date: 2002-11-08 06:41 am (UTC)I've been dosing on levoxyl for years now. I figured it was just a weird shape to keep you from confusing it with all the other pills. (I tend to carry vitamins, advil and my prescription drugs in the same tin when I travel.)

Date: 2002-11-08 07:14 am (UTC)yeah, my doc just started me up on it. i'm titrating up, starting at 25 mcg for this week, then to 50 for a while, and eventually to 75 mcg. apparently, my thyroid missed the news about what happened to the last organ that slacked off in my body and has started snoozing on the job.
